# Service Reference Card

## Daemons running

synergy

## Init scripts

On CentOS:

```
systemctl [start|stop|status] synergy
```

On Ubuntu:

```
service synergy [start|stop|status]
```

## Configuration file

Synergy must be configured properly filling the */etc/synergy/synergy.conf* configuration file.

Instructions how to fill this file, along with an example, are available in the 'Deployment and Administrator Guide'

## Logfile

By default synergy logs its activities on the file */var/log/synergy/synergy.log*. This file name can be changed modifying the synergy configuration file (attribute *filename* of the *\[Logger]* section)

## Open ports

To interact with Synergy using the client tool, just one port needs to be open. This is the port defined in the synergy configuration file (attribute *port* in the *\[WSGI]* section). The default value is 8051.

## Synergy storage

Likewise the OpenStack services, synergy stores persistently the needed information in a relational database. Instructions how to create this database are reported in the 'Deployment and Administrator Guide'.

## Cron jobs

Synergy doesn't use any cron jobs
